the structure of a building;
the exterior of a building;
chimneys, stairs, balconies or other things attached to the exterior of a building;
doors, windows, window coverings affecting the exterior appearance of the building or skylights [amendment SPAA s. 51(a)] on the exterior of a building, or that front on the common property;
